May 2025 — Delivered core reliability and encoding robustness enhancements in aiplan4eu/unified-planning. Key outcomes include stricter UPState validation with better error feedback to catch invalid fluent assignments early, plus targeted test coverage; and PDDL encoding robustness by standardizing UTF-8 with BOM across the parser, reader, and IO utilities to handle diverse file encodings. These improvements reduce runtime errors, improve debugging, and enable smoother integration with external workflows, reflecting strong Python engineering, test-driven development, and encoding/IO handling skills.
